I first experienced it a few weeks ago, coincidentally after I started experiencing some kind of weird, mass downvoting of basically every comment I write. For some reason, this mass downvoting is continuing.

I don't mean that literally every comment I write is getting downvoted to below zero. Rather, I'll write something, it will accumulate a couple to several upvotes, and then, those upvotes all go away over the course of a few more hours, sometimes to be replaced by net downvotes.

The end result is that I actually have less karma now than I did a few weeks ago. And, I wouldn't particularly care about those fake internet points, if the loss of them didn't seemingly come with these weird, arbitrary-seeming restrictions like "you are posting too fast."

TBH, it's getting to the point where I'm about ready to abandon this account.
